919 North Main Street
Mooresville, N. C. 28115
Dear Mr. Overcash:
Pursuant to our telephone conversation regarding the
operation of a rock quarry off of SR 1142, Running Brook Rd.
in southern Cabarrus County please be advised of the
following.
Despite the misleading information grovided to your office by
Martin Marietta ' s Mr . Wilson, Mr . Kindley still lives within
200 yds . of the quarry site. I am-'extremely disappointed
that the air monitoring was stopped and the stations now
removed simply upon the word of an employee of Martin
Marietta. Knowing that cessation of the monitoring would
onl y ben e f i t;, Mar t�,:n Marietta, it tT f1111 A s_ee m to t-o L.ave
v 4FiM wi♦'..c�a�� 4V illC I..V L1QVC
been prudent to have at least validated this information. It
is true that Martin Marietta purchased Mr. Kindley' s
property and moved him to an alternate site, however that
site is directly across SR 1142 from the quarry. It is
imperative that the stations be placed in operation to ensure
that Mr. Kindley' s right to life is not further impaired .
Additionally and irrespective of Mr. Kindley' s rights , the
1c a tu tc s L cquir e t a1 cL t no 4lG 4G1.for a L.J.Vli 111 alllutCil 1. Cl1L
quality shall be permitted and to that end, limits on
suspended particulates have been established. The means of
sampling for potential violations of these limits has also
been defined. It does not appear to me that the air quality
can be reasonably maintained without a monitoring station. I
therefore respectfully request that the air monitoring
stations be placed back in operation immediately. Please
advise of your intentions in this matter of grave concern to
the immediate residents .
Enclosed for your information are copies of the letters from
Mr. Kindley' s doctors concerning his health.

Thank you for .your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Dennis C. Shultz

The application for a mining permit for Allen Quarry in Cabarrus

sufficient to cover this application, I am enclosing the mining permit.
The conditions of the mining permit were based primarily upon

Erosion Control:
Attached is a revised erosion control plan including calculations. The
sediment basin has been enlarged and relocated as requested.
Air uality Control:
The concerns associated with dust emissions from the proposed operation are
currently being addressed through our permitting process with the Air Quality
Section. Computer modeling has been requested to predict off property ambient

,o Quarry suit
settlement
is approved
By MARK PLEMMONS
Staff Writer
The Cabarrus County Commissioners and plann-
ing board unanimously approved a consent judg-
3T ment that would end the lawsuit brought against
the county by Martin Marietta Corp.
ATE 14 After a joint executive session Monday morning
1200011 with county attorney Fletcher Hartsell, the boards
voted to send the document to the federal district
- courtjudge.
County Manager Charles McGinnis said the
HME judge ordered both parties to come to some kind of
agreement in the case.
22 24 26 Martin Marietta had sued the county for $1 mil-.
lion in actual and punitive damages after an exten-
sive county debate on zoning and other issues in-
volved with the company's plans for a quarry in the
Flowe's Store community.
The county eventually said that the quarry was
permitted as a conditional use.
The consent judgment, which is expected to be
issued by the judge, is a combination of claims and
counterclaims by both Cabarrus County and Martin '
Marietta,McGinnis said. �(
The judgment said.the litigation would likely be v
"protracted and expensive for all parties and its
ultimate outcome is not clear.... It is in,the best in-
terest of all parties to compromise their position in
the matter and, in particular, it is in the best inter--
ion est of the citizens and residents of Cabarrus Coun-
ty."
1
0
0 The judgment says that Martin Marietta can
operate the quarry if it follows certain conditions
set forth by the county. Among these conditions are
that site, operation and rehabilitation 'plans must
be presented the county zoning admistrator. The
expected to entrance must also be paved and dust-free, and se- aC
curity'fences must be erected near buildings. Also,

This operation will conform to the standard safety practices as
set forth by the U. S. Bureau of Mines and the N. G. Department
of Labor.
5. Describe measures to be taken during mining to insure against
(1) substantial erosion and offsite deposits of sediment (include
specific plans for erosion control for mine excavation, waste piles,
and process areas) , (2) landslides, (3) acid water pollution.
(i) J6feguards taken argainst, erosion will include ern-sion control
fences, brush barriers, sediment basins, and revegetation where
needed. Offsite deposits of sediment will not be a potential
problem at this site.
(2) Landslides are not applicable to this mining operation because
all unconsolidated material is removed from the pit area for use
in berm construction.

APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT
6. If explosives will be used, describe what precaution will be used
to prevent physical hazard to persons or neighboring property by
flying rocks or excessive air blasts or ground vibrations.
Blasting ..ill be conducted so as to prevent damage by thrown rocks
and from excessive vibration. Any natural features such as tree lines,
hedgerows or ridges will be left undisturbed. Where necessary, rows of
trees or a vegetated earth berm will be established between excavation
and neighboring property to serve as a noise and vibration barrier.
Blasts will be periodically monitored by seismographs to insure that
vibration levels are well within guidelines set by the state.

Reclamation Plan
1. Describe your intended plan for the reclamation and subsequent use of
all affected lands and indicate the general methods to he used in
reclaiming this land:
Reclamation of disturbed areas will be an ongoing part of the
operating plan. At such time as the decision is made to terminate
operatinns at this sit- a final reclamation ation plan will be su mltted
to the Division of Land Resources which will cover the final re-
clamation of the disturbed areas by clearing, grading and planting
of grasses and trees. The excavation itself will be allowed to fill
with groundwater and could be used for water storage, recreational
or other uses which the landowner may choose.

Reclamation Plan
Z . In excavation of unconsolidated materials, describe what measures will be
taken to insure protection of adjacent resources such as width of buffer
zone and grade of slope, etc.
A surface gradient will be established such that no slope will be
greater than the angle which can be retained by vegetative cover or other
adequate erosion control measures. We will achieve this surface gradient
by backfiiling and/or grading. We will keep a 100' buffer zone between
our excavation and adjoining property.
3 . describe provisions for safety to persons and to adjoining property in all
completed excavations in rock.
A perimeter fence or boulder barriers will be placed around all excavations
upon completion of our mining operation.
4 . Indicate method of reclamation of overburden, refuse, spoil banks or other
such mine waste areas.
Spoil banks will be graded and revegetated with appropriate grasses
or trees native to the area.
5 . State what precautions will be taken in reclamation to insure that the
reclaimed site is not detrimental to animal or fish life.
This mining operation will not yield any toxic pollutants that would
be harmful to wildlife. Open areas disturbed by the q-ua-r,ryingoperation will
be returned to native forestation.

{ Reclamation Plan
6. Describe plans, if any, for screening operations from public view.
A buffer zone of 100' will be preserved along the property lines.
Existing trees that will serve as a screen will be left uncut. Where no
trees exist and where necessary, new trees will be planted in rows or
vegetated berms will be constructed to screen operations from public view.
7. State the method of rehabilitation of settling ponds.
Prior to cessation of the quarrying operation, settling ponds will be
allowed to fill with solids. Overburden material will be placed to return
the area to its prior natural condition.
8. State the method of control of contaminants and disposal of mining refuse
(Note definition of refuse in The Mining Act of' 1971) :
Used oils and greases will be stored in storage tanks for pick-up by
local oil recycling dealers. Miscellaneous refuse will be buried in accordance
with acceptable sanitary landfill practices. Any remaining piles of rock waste
will .be leveled to conform with the existing topography. A vegetative cover
will be added where feasible.
9. Indicate the method of restoration or establishment of any drainage channels
to a condition minimizing erosion, siltation and other pollution:
We do not feel that it will be necessary to divert any existing drainage
channels. If necessary in the future, we will dia di_versinn dircheq ro a
gradient , width and depth as near as possible to that existing prior to mining.
The banks of these diversion ditches will be sloped to the angle of repose and
stablilized with vegetation or rip-rap to minimize erosion.

9
Reclamation Plan
10. Describe provisions for prevention of noxious, odious or foul water
collecting or remaining in mined areas.
In this operation, final excavation will be below the natural stream
elevation, therefore, the pit would become a fresh water pond. Overflow from
this pond will follow the existing natural drainage.
11. Describe how the surface gradient in unconsolidated materials will be
restored to a condition suitable for the proposed subsequent use of the
land after reclamation is completed and proposed method of accomplishment:
The surface gradient will be established such that no slope will exceed
2 to 1. We will achieve these gradients by grading and/or backfiiling.
12. Describe your plan for revegetation or other surface treatment of the
affected areas: NOTE: Revegetation Plan must be approved• by one of the
following:
(a) Authorized representatives of the local Soil and Water
Conservation District having jurisdiction over lands
it n„patinn•
(b) Authorized representatives of the Office of Forest
Resources, Department of Natural Resources and
Community Development;
(c) County Agricultural,Extension chairmen or Research

12 . (Continued)
The affected land as outlined in this permit and shown on the attached map
is expected to be in use beyond the maximum permissible permit period. In
the past it has been our policy to establ-ksh ground cover of grasses and/or
trees on earth berms, dikes, and dams as soon as practical after construction,
and on spoils piles no longer in use.
1. Slopes in unconsolidated material will be kept at an angle consistent
with the nature of the material so that the possibility of erosion is
minimized and so that revegetation is feasible.

Dear Mr. Willson:
Subject: Air Permit Application
Additional Information
Required
Reference is made to your air permit application for the Allen
Quarry located one half mile South of Flows Store on SR1132 and SR1142
in Cabarrus County.
Before our permit review can be completed the following additional
information is needed from Martin Marietta:
1. Based on the attached letters forwarded to the Air Quality
Section by the Land Quality Section , it appears an adjoining
property owner, Mr. Loyd Kindley, on the north side has a
serious respiratory problem. What is the possible particulate
air quality impact on Mr. Kindley's property from quarry
construction, berm construction, quarry operation, access road
traffic, and materials stockpiling. From DEM regulation .0535
Prevention of Significant Deterioration, the maximum all9wable
ambient particulate increase (PSD increments) is 37 ug/m (24
hour) and 19 ug/m (annual ). Because no other increment
consuming sources appear to be in your impact area the full
increment is available. Computer modeling by Martin Marietta
is required to predict off property ambient impacts to
determine compliance with PSD increments and to predict impacts
on the Kindley property. You should contact Eldewins Haynes of
my staff for guidance on acceptable modeling practices.
2. What measures will Martin Marietta propose to minimize off
property particulate emissions, including the north side?
Attached are the emission factors Air Quality uses for quarry
operations. Any deviation from these factors should be approved by Air
Quality. Also, attached is the proposed NSPS for quarry operations.

RE: Harry Loyd Kindley
Rt. 1, Box 229
Midland, N. C. 28107
TO WHOM IT MAX CONCERN:
The above named individual has been a patient off for 'the past
nine years. He underwent a laryngectomy approximateiy nine"years'-ago
for carcinoma of the larynx. He therefore is an obligatory 'neck breather
without normal filtration process of the nose.
He has subsequently had a lung resection for a carcii'ioma"'of'the-lung
and only has a right lung and therefore has diminished 'breathirig capacity.
He has problems with intermittent recurrent bronchitis.
He has related the plan to place a rock quarry next to his home. _
The attendant dust associated with such an endeavor and the'dnst from the "
gravel trucks traveling up and down the road could seriously impair hs''ability
to breathe and function in a fashion normal for him.
I feel serious consideration should be given to locating the quarry in
another area further from this patient's home due to the potential for serious
compromise of his life and breathing status.

SUBJECT: Comments on the Mining Application,
Martin Marietta Allan Quarry,
Cabarrus County
It would be to the advantage of Martin Marietta to conduct a groundwater
survey prior to the beginning of quarrying. The survey should establish
existing groundwater conditions with particular emphasis on water level
elevations and water quality parameters that could be impacted by the use of
explosives for each of the aquifers found beneath their area.
The mining permit should require the submission and execution of a ground-
water monitoring plan. Also the company should monitor the discharge of waters
from their quarry.
Should there be any questions concerning this matter by either you. or.
the company, please feel free to contact me.

Dear Mr. Long:
In reference to your letter of October 22, . 1984, the Department has
always interpreted the word °extraction" as it relates to G.S. 74-47 to
mean the entire mine operation. This interpretation has been made in
the absence of a specific definition of 'extraction' in The Mining Act
of 1971 and the-use of the word in context of G.S. 74-47.
The Attorney General's Office supports this interpretation.
In the case of a quarry, "extraction' would include the clearing,
grading, blasting, mining, processing, stockpiling, and loading from
stockpiles.
Please advise if you have further questions in this matter.
Si rely,

Re: Allen Quarry
Cabarrus County
Dear Mr. Willson: _
After inspecting the proposed Allen Quarry site on September 20,
1984, we have found that several aspects of the application need
clarification or additional information.
(1) A scaled drawing or pre£erly aerial photograph showing the
proposed site and the neighboring houses is needed to better
evaluate the potential impact to those residents. The various
aspects of the operation should be located on the
drawing/photograph. The direction of quarry expansion should
be shown.
(2) An erosion and sediment control plan is needed to show how
Anderson Creek will be protected from offsite sedimention.
(3) A natural gas pipeline is located approximately 2000 feet
south of the site at the nearest point. Documentation is
needed to show that quarry blasting will pose no hazard to
this gasline.
zr ruerrv.utivai is uir`io necaacu Lv 51YVIN t11GL L1tlbLlflCj V1DCaLlaTi
will not damage the neighboring houses within 3000 feet of the
proposed quarry excavation.
(5) Information is needed to determine the impact from blasting or
quarry dewatering on neighboring groundwater, including impact
to adjacent wells and water supply springs.

winds.
(7) Additional detail on the berm(s) is needed such as location,

SUBJECT: Proposed Martin Marietta ef!an�Iuar
Cabarrus County
Thank you for your memo of December 17, 1984 indicating historic
structures in the vicinity of the proposed Allan Quarry in Cabarrus
County.
Our investigation has found that these structures are from 5000 to
7000 feet from the proposed quarry. Several newer houses are within
2000 feet of the quarry.
Since the mining permit would require blasting limits to protect
the nearest structures, the historic structures should be well beyond
adverse impact from quarry blasting with a safety factor for their
historic nature.
Thank you for your assistance in identifying these historic
structures.

We have conducted a search of our maps and files and have located the
following structures of historical or architectural importance within
the general area of the.project:
Monroe-Linker House
Divsionof Located near' intersection of SR 1141 'and 1143 Bast Foad ) rsith Flower
Prchives and Hisiory Store Road. This finely detailed Italianate frame house was built between
Williams Price,Jr,Director 1875 and 1890 and retains its original sawn, turned, and molded ornament,
chamfered posts, floral brackets and continuous sawnbbalustrade. Interior
finishes are typical for the period and much of the original fabric is
intact. The house has recently undergone assympathetic rehabilitation.
While the eligibility of the house for listing intthe National Register is
suspect, it is still a good farmhouse, well cared for, and deserves.
consideration.
Flowes Store Historic District
Located at the intersection of Flowes Store Road and SR 1125 (Bethel
Church Road) . The proposed district is listed on the state study list
for possible future nomination to the National Register. It consists of
four structures, both commercial and residential.
Marshall Brown Store and Cotton Gin: Built in the early twentieth
century, this was the social and economic center of the rural
neighborhood for forty years. It is typical of rural commercial
architecture and has a tall false front and full facade porch. The
cotton gin, erected in 1940 as the successor to gins which have
since 1884, is one of the few gins left in the county.
Benjamin Burleyson House: Mid to late nineteenth century. Well-
Sara W. Hodgkins. detailed Italianate house with elaborate two-bay porch decorated
Secretary with sawn and molded ornament, fine original interiors.
James B. Hunt, Jr..
Governor D. W. Flowe House: One-story Italianate house built between 1877
and 1880. The house was built for Doctor Flowe, who served the
_ community which later bore his name. The house exhibits fine
AM decorative brackets and sawn balusters and retains much of the
original interior finish. 1

D. W. Flowe Store: This is a picturesque, temple form frame store and
the county's most distinguished surviving example of rural commercial
architecture. Dr. Flowe operated the store during the last twenty years
of the nineteenth century. This building was moved to its present site
from the Rocky River Presbyterian Church vicinity in 1880. Greek Revival
influence is evident in the gable front, pedimented roof, square conrer
blocks around the windows and flush board sheathing.

Dear Mr. Sewell: +
In accordance with your letter of December 7, 1984 and our meeting on
December 19, 1984, we would like to qubmit the following additional
information:
1) Computer Modeling:
The 'results of computer modeling for the site by JRB' Associates is
attached. Dust emissions from the model indicate the following levels:
• Highest Property Line Reading - 33.6 ug/m3 (100 meters south
of pit area)
• Kindley Property - 15.5 ug/m3
This is within the maximum allowable ambient increase of- 37 ug/m3,
which is the PSD increment for this area.
2) Dust Control- Measures:
All roads and open yard areas will be adequately sprayed to suppress
fugitive dust emissions from truck traffic and mobile construction
equipment. A water truck similar to the ones shown in the attached
photographs will be employed as a permanent dust control device.

As noted during the December 19 meeting, all material processed through
the rinsing and sizing screen will be thoroughly washed as required to
meet cleanstone specifications.
The amount of water required for this operation is given in the attached
publication under Factor "E" - Wet Screening. Generally, about 5 to 7 GPM
of water are used per ton of cleanstone produced per hour. Figuring clean-
stone production at 120 TPH would yield a flow rate of approximately
700 GPM of wash water, which is recirculated back to the closed circuit
system.
The washing operation and the control. of stockpile dust are shown in the
following photos:
Photos #9 S #10 - Washing operation.
Photo #11 - Wetting stockpiles.
We are confident that this facility will be able to operate well within the
allowable limits under any and all conditions. We trust that the attached
information is sufficient and would appreciate your earliest review. Please
call if there are any questions.
Sincerely,

Prepared by:
Carole Cameron, Assoc. ASLA

SEQUENCE OF INSTALLATION
1. Permanent sediment control structures will be installed. A swale
will divert runoff from west edge of plant area. Disturbed areas
will be grassed according to seeding specifications.
2. Brush barriers will be constructed along the edge of the 100'
buffer zone to protect Anderson Creek. These barriers will be
constructed prior to the initial pit opening.
3. Relocation of existing pond outlet will be completed as the pit
expands into the existing drainageway from the pond. ' Relocation
will anticipate the expected expansion of the pit for a ten year
time period. A temporary pit with a rock check filter will be
located just above entry point into Anderson Creek for protection
during construction of the diversion and until such time as grass
is established. Rip rap will be used when slope exceeds 3%. Rip
rap will be placed along both banks of Anderson Creek to prevent
scouring of the channel.
4. As pit develops, overburden will be used to construct berms
beginning with berms along Running Brook Road. * Silt fencing will
be used where necessary at the toe, of the berm to control erosion.

SEEDING SPECIFICATIONS
I . Apply lime and fertilizer according to N. C. Department of
Agriculture soils test.
2. Seed prepared areas with the following mix:
Spring Planting:
KY 31 Fescue @ rate of 30 lb/ac
Sericea Lespedeza @ rate of 40-50 lb/ac
(scarified)
Fall Planting:
KY 31 Fescue @ rate of 30 lb/ac
Sericea Lespedeza @ rate of 50-70 lb/ac
(unhulled — unscarified)
3. Mulch with straw @ 2T/ac and tack with asphalt emulsion.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Fin Johnson, Chief
Air Quality Section
FROM: Charles H. Gardner, Chief
Land Quality Section
SUBJECT: Proposed Martin Marietta Allen Quarry
Cabarrus County
Martin Marietta has applied for a mining permit for a quarry in the
Flowes Store Community in Cabarrus County near the intersection of SR
1132 and SR 1142.
I understand that Martin Marietta will apply for the air quality
permit in the near future. The Mining Act and mining permits require
compliance with air quality laws and standards.
One of the adjoining property owners on the north side, Mr. Loyd
Kindley, has a serious respiratory problem described by the attached
letters from his doctors. Mr. Kindley's house and property are located
relatively near the access road, stockpile and plant areas.
We would appreciate your cooperation during the review of the air
quality permit application when submitted and your assistance in
determining possible air quality impact to the Kindley property from
fugitive dust as well as possible mitigating measures.
I am enclosing a copy of a location and site map, cross section of
proposed berm, correspondence from Martin Marietta concerning
Mr. Kindley, and copies of letters from Mr. Kindley's doctors. For
further information, Jim Simons of my staff may be contacted
at ext. 3-4574.

- i
SEQUENCE OF INSTALLATION
I. Permanent sediment control structures -will-be__installed. A sale will
divert runoff from west edge of plant •area. Disturbed areas will be
grassed according to seeding specifications.
2. Relocation of existing pond outlet will be completed as the pit
expands into the existing drainageway from the pond. Relocation will
anticipate the expected expansion of the pit for a ten year time
period. Rip rap will be used when slope exceeds 3%.
3. Brush barriers will be constructed along the edge of the 100' buffer
zone to .protect Anderson Creek. These barriers will be constructed
to t}�e initial nit nnnninn_
�--4. As pit develops, overburden will be used to construct berms beginning
with berms along Running Brook Road. Silt fencing will be used where
necessary at the toe of the berm to control erosion.

SEEDING SPECIFICATIONS
1. Apply lime and fertilizer according to N. C. Department of Agriculture
soils test.
2. Seed prepared areas with the following mix:
Spring Planting:
KY 31 Fescue @ rate of 30 lb/ac
Sericea Lespedeza @ rate of 40-50 lb/ac
(scarified)
Fall Planting:
KY 31 Fescue @ rate of 30 lb/ac
Sericea Lespedeza @ rate of 60-70 lb/ac
(unhulled - unscarified)
3. Mulch with straw @ 2T/ac and tack with asphalt emulsion.

Subject: Additional Information
Allen Quarry Site
Cabarrus County
Dear Mr. Simons:
In response to your letter of September 25, 1984 we are offering the following
comments for your consideration. .
' (1 ) Aerial photograph of proposed site and neighboring houses. This was
delivered to you on November 5, 1984.
(2) Erosion and sediment control plan. See attached.
J (3) Natural gas pipeline. As noted on the attached copies of aerial photographs,
we are currently operating our Charlotte Quarry within 200' of Piedmont
Natural Gas Company's line. This quarry has been in service since 1956.
No damage of any type has ever been recorded.
Our Cayce, South Carolina Quarry is present-ly,!operating within 500 ' of
S. C. Electric & Gas Company's line. This quarry has been in operation
since the late 1800's. No damage of any type has ever been recorded.
In view of the above long standing conditions, the existence of a natural
gas pipeline approximately 2,000 feet from the proposed Allen Quarry is
not considered a hazard . The has romnany is alcn in agreement that mir
operation will not be a hazard.
(4) Blasting vibrations. Seismograph recordings will be made of each blast
initally to establish a blasting program suitable for this particular
site. Our shots are normally designed to maintain a particle velocity
at or below 0.5 inches per second. Total pounds of explosives per delay
will be determined to meet this criteria. A safe level of blasting
vibration for houses is generally recognized to be 2 inches per second
or greater.

James D. Simons
November 8, 1984
Page 2
In addition to the above, we propose to conduct a pre-mining condition
survey of all houses within 3,000 feet of the pit excavation.
(5) Groundwater. The impact of the mining operation on neighboring wells and
springs has been shown to be limited to within 500 feet of the pit exca-
vation. This can be documented by the fact that all of our mining operations
have water wells for the quarry office and employee building. Damage to our
own wells would develop if blasting had a significant effect, This has not
occurred.
Also, we propose to develop two observation wells as noted on the aerial
photograph prior to any mining activity.
(6) The control of dust during and after construction will be accomplished as
follows:
A wet suppression spray system will be installed on the plant to control
dust generated from crushing and conveying activities. Information on the
systems will be submitted when we apply for our air operation permit in
the future. 0.;
Road dust and other fugitive emissions will be controlled by a water truck
equipped with a spray system for roads and a fire hose attachment for wetting
down muckpiles, stockpiles, and any other area needing control . The entrance
road will be paved up to the office.
(7) Berms. This information was delivered to you on November 5, 1984.
We trust that this information is sufficient to satisfy our mining permit re-
quirements . Please give me a call if you should have any additional questions.
Sincerely,

OFFICE OF ADMINISTRATIVE HEARINGS
October 3, 1984
RECEIV ED

Division of Land Resources

pty.4F AHD RES.
Office of Administrative Hearings
: .i � ' dSTTBJECT C�„¢ry of PubiC "ear' c 7cptUeL 2 , an
i , eLU V
written comments submitted, pursuant to NCGS 74-51 and
15 NCAC 5B .0011, on the Mining Permit Application of
Martin Marietta dated July 23, 1984.
James Simons, Steve Allred and Jerry Cook appeared for the Division
of Land Resources.
Horace Willson, Leonard Mangum, Carol Cameron, Buck Powell, John
LVllg, Gelle WVVU.L.L L iilirle tGTL6Ci1 Sild Bob Edwards appeared for 1"lartin
Marietta. In addition, Ed Floyd, a civil engineer and hydrogeologist on
retainer with Martin Marietta answered questions.
One hundred and thirty four (134) persons attended the public
hearing, and there was a request made by 104 persons °to receive a copy
of this report. Our office is providing same via first--class mail.
Attached are copies of written comments submitted, before and after the
public hearing, relative to this mining permit application.
Subsequent to my brief opening comments relative to the nature of
the public hearing, Jim Simons proceeded to discuss NCGS 74-51,
specifically subsections (1) - (7) thereof the criteria of the Mining
Act according to which the Department determines whether or not to iRsue
a mining permit.
Thereafter, Martin Marietta, in the persons of Horace Willson and
Carol Cameron, made an oral and visual presentation relative to what
Martin Marietta has proposed. Mr. Willson stated that there was high
grade granite on the proposed site and that air and water permits, which
would be required in addition to a mining permit, would provide adequate
safeguards for people living in the vicinity. Further, he stated that
the operation would!
- not be visible from the road (SR 1132 and 1142)
- result in no dust or debris leaving the site
- have a 500' buffer to deaden noise
- result in only a 2% increase in traffic on Hwy. 24/27 and
8% on SR 1132 (Flowes Store Rd.)
- leave property values unchanged
1

1
- not affect groundwater more than 500` from the operation
- involve blasting twice per week
Following the presentation of Martin Marietta, an opportunity was
afforded those who wished to give comments or ask questions. The
following general subject areas, more specifically discussed below, were
mentioned either at the public hearing, in written comments submitted or
both: groundwater, effects of blasting, traffic/road concerns, matters
relative to the law or permit process and the existing nature or use of
this area. Not all of the concerns below are pertinent per NCGS 74-51.
I. Groundwater
If there was a paramount concern voiced, it was the effect the
proposed quarry would have on groundwater. Many wondered if the water
table would be lowered, if artesian wells would be contaminated or go
dry because of seismic activity, and whether residents could expect
Martin Marietta to correct, if not anticipate, problems without forcing
residents to take the initiative. A related concern was voiced relative
to how Anderson Creek would be protected from offsite erosion and
sedimentation.
II. Effects of Blasting
Concern was raised as to the adverse effect blasting may have on
persons, livestock, structures and a nearby natural gas pipeline. One
resident 400 feet from the proposed operation has had his larynx and
lung removed, and he and others fear their health may suffer, primarily
because of the deleterious affect this operation may have on air
quality. Also, questions were raised concerning the possibility of
offsite dust and flying debris from blasting.
III. Traffic/Road Concerns
Several comments were made relative to whether or not Running Brook
Road (SR 1142) would eventually be closed to citizen traffic, against
their wishes, because of the mining operation. Many were troubled by
the increase in traffic the operation would bring to roads in this
vicinity, with the fear that this would cause a decrease in safety, more
than normal wear and tear on road surfaces and related.
IV. Permit Process and Applicable Law
A speaker at the September 20, 1984 public hearing contended that
the mining permit application of Martin Marietta was vague and contained
misrepresentations. Two participants felt it inappropriate that
"nrinrit•v consideration" be- oiyen to mini„a n„er�ti^.n� .O�id�••
materials to the Department of Transportation per NCGS 74-51. Martin
Marietta acknowledged it would be providing materials to the Department
of Transportation.
Another speaker questioned why this locality would be forced to
bear the burden of state imposed action, in the form of granting the
permit.
1

s
Several persons feared expansion of the proposed initial operation
into adjacent areas. It was stated that once Martin Marietta had an
approved permit, it would be considerably easier for it to receive a
modification of the permit. Many were troubled by reclamation and the
hazard or potential hazard remaining subsequent to abandonment of the
operation, particularly when water fills an abandoned pit.
V. Existing Nature or Use of This Area
Many have emphasized that this area is rural, residential and
generally free of industry. There was concern expressed relative to the
appearance of the operation and fear that it would be unsightly and
noisy. Devaluation of property values and detriments outweighing
benefits was repeatedly mentioned.
Martin Marietta representatives sought to answer the questions
raised, after which the public hearing adjourned at approximately 10:00
p.m.

Dear Mr. Conrad:
�Y _
1 am writing to you because oft the cre_Y_ep concern T 1 In_ave
for the Martin Marietta Basic Products application for a mining
permit for a crushed stone quarry off SR 1142 near Midland in
Cabarrus County. I have been designated to write for the community
to voice our disapproval of this quarry.
Our community has been a farming and residential area
since its existence. It is rural in nature in just about every way.
To allow a stone quarry to operate in this area would jeopardize our
serene and fruitful way of living, not to mention the nuisance of noise
and dust and unsightliness.
We ask that you please take into consideration all of these
facts when making your decision to either grant or deny a permit for
the above-mentioned purpose. This letter may not seem to come on
very strong. We do not know what else to reintegrate to you that
would express just how strongly we feel on this subject. We would
like to keep our farming and residential .area just as it is , without
the nuisance of this quarry operation.
Sincerely,
Fs. I ne cott,J F. '

Dear Mr Conrad;
This letter is in reference to the proposed Martin-Marietta quarry on Flowe Store Road, my
family and I (Ginger Helms) live on Flowe Store,Road, Box 325 F Rt 2.
Please take a minute and let me tell you how I feel about the proposed quarry. We have on-
ly lived in our new home for one year, it took my husband and myself 13 years to be able to
build our first home, we worked very hard and now have put everything we hid into this house.
If this proposed quarry is built, our home and land will depreciate in value, instead of in-
creasing as we had hoped for, we also feel the. following will take place if this quarry is
built;
(1 ) the depreciation in value of our home and land ( that it took us 13 years to get)
(2) traffic will increase in our area, we have two boys, which we moved out of the city
to get them in a lower traffic area
(3) our water ,may be unfit for our family to drink
(4) the blasting may cause structural damage to our home! This could cause our house to
settle, from the sudden jar from t W blast. What will we do then, everything we have
hoped for and dreamed of having we have put into our first home.
(5) danger to the children in the neighborhood, our's and other's, our youngest son is
sensitive to loud noise, he has a ringing in his ears when he is subjected to loud
noise, this can cause a hearing loss
(6) the danger of the quarry to children also includes all the dust they will be breath-
ing from the blasting and the traffic
We choose to make our home in a country area to rid our children of the busy traffic and
noise that is in the city. We have worked very hard to build our home (my hushand built
our home) and we are very proud of our home, please consider what this will do to the fam-
ilys in our area, and how this is going to affect our value of our homes, but most of all
what it will do to our children.
Thank you for your time, please think of us in your decision.
T aA you,

Dear Mr. Conrad,
Thepeople
The L the Flove Store Road area of Midland. NC ' are in
desperate need of your support to help us prevent the rock
quarry project that Martin-Marietta Co. b Marshall Little
are proposing. Wby should our beautiful, quiet community
bn ruined by. this?
We can see only these results; the air will be affected
by the dust and noise, our water table will be affected
(please see the attached water analysis of our well) . The
water Is, already contaminated with. sulfur bacteria, and
our roads will be torn up by the continuous traffic of the
heavy dump trucks . What about our livestock and pets? How
are they going to be affected by the constant dynamiting?
A rock quarry should be confined to the commercial sites
and not even be considered for a residential area.
We ask, how can Marshall Little do this to the people he
has known all -his life? Is money so important to him that
he will ruin our community?
Again, we, ask for your kind consideration and support a.gaist
this proposed matter,.

91. Gentlemen:
a
We are writing this letter in reference to the application made to your depart-
ment by Martin Marietta Basic Products, Aggregates Division,
Our home is located on Flowe's Store Road adjoining the western side of the pro-
perty sought by Martin Marietta. We are highly opposed to this company mining
' the 135 acres located in the community in which our home is located.
?n giving this matter considerable thought, we have determined numerous disadvan-
tages in mining for granite in a residential area. The following items are of
. , great concern to us as land owners and home owners:
�. Such mining is likely to cause damage to our home ( i.e., blasting with dyna-
mite may crack the walls and/or foundation of our home) .
Mining will undoubtedly cause increased accumulation of dust in the
atmosphere surrounding our home.
o
4 Mining will affect the quality of the roads, especially Running Brook and
Flowe's Store Roads, due to increased traffic of heavy equipment and trucks.
7;,. Minining in the community will cause a significant decrease in the current
o
value of our property and home.
Loud blasting and noise of machinery may be harmful to farm animals (i .e.
cows, horses, fowl located on our property) .
consider the aforementioned concerns before granting a mining permit to
" 1`1•IT'ietta. We have always had the intention of living in our home through

Dear Mr . Conrad,
We are writing this letter to express our opposition to the proposed
Martin-Marietta quarry on Flowes Store Rd. in Concord, N.C. Our objections
to having such a quarry in our area are as follows ;
1. High risk of groundwater contamination.
2. Decreased property values.
3. Damage from blasting to surrounding structures.
,4
q. Truck traffic by our home and resulting damage to our roads.
5. Contamination. to the air. ( our son has asthma so this of great
concern to us.)
We are proud of the close knit, quiet community that we live in and we
II
hate to see it ruined by this proposed stone quarry. Any help or consideration
you could give us concerning this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Surface Mining Permit
ientiemen
Our firm has been contacted by Jim W. Parks who is the owner
relating to the above application for a mining permit. Mr. Parks is
the owner of land immediately adjacent to the proposed mining site
and resides thereon with his wife and family. Although the specific
details of the mining operation have not been made known at this
time, Mr. Parks feels that the applicant's operations will have a
substantial negative impact on the surrounding landowners and home-
owners as well as concerns for the environmental impact. He is in
the process of meeting with the adjoining neighbors and the people
in the surrounding residential area who have similar concerns.
It is specifically requested that a public hearing be conducted
and that further details of the proposed mining operations be provided
to the local community through Mr. Parks in the meantime.

Gentlemen:
' I am responding to your notification of application for a mining permit sought
by Martin Marietta Basic Products, Aggregates Division.
I currently own land which joins the 135 acres of property Martin Marietta is
seeking as their site for mining granite. In March of 1984, I began building
a house on the land adjoining this proposed site. This untimely news is extre-
mely disturbing. When I chose this location for my new home, I was totally
unaware that such plans were being considered for the land, which is directly
across the road from the front of my home.
As a new home owner and property owner, I forsee the following repercussions
with the implementation of mining in the proposed area:
1. Depreciation of the value of land and home.
2. Damage to walls and/or foundation of home caused by blasting.
3. Possible damage to well on property (blasting may cause veins in earth to
close, preventing flow of water) .
4• Air pollution ( i .e. , dust, exhausts from mining equipment) .
5. Noise pollution (i .e. blasting with dynamite, sounds from operation of heavy
equipment, big trucks starting and stopping at intersections in front of
home) .
6. destruction of newly paved road adjoining proposed site of mining (Fiowe's
Store Road) .
In conclusion, I would like to make your department fully aware of my position
in this matter. Had I known about Martin Marietta's intentions for the proposed
site of the rock quarry, I would have reconsidered constructing a home on my
property! flue to this notification and its possible consequences, I feel I have
been cheated out of the enjoyment •of erecting a new home. The people in this
community should be given much consideration in such a ridiculous proposal for a
residential U•I eaa

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to review and comment on the
above project purseiant to Chapter 74, Article 7 -of the North Carolina
General Statutes.
Because of the location and topographic situation of the proposed
.,5 -nce,,r.;Arecicf project area, it is unlikely that any archaeological sites which may be
eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places will
be affected by the proposed borrowing. We therefore recommend that no
archaeological investigation be conducted in connection with this
project.
Thank you for your cooperation and consideration. If you have questions
concerning the above comments, please contact Ms. Renee Gledhill-Earley.

Gentlemen;
Concerning the issuance of a mining permit to the Martin-Marietta
Aggregates group, I am asking the following questions.
1. 0 Has a geophysical study been done for this part of North Carolina
which establishes the velocities, damping, and thus , the limit of travel
of shock waves resulting from the blasting in the proposed quarry? The
.1 1,� �.0 �4 .�1.._& .1 J L_ �1 . �J J. .�.1. �L: iL.� �LL��i
r ezul is Of sL coh a s4.UUY �.1.luau lie appAaeu ttl p e1.FAc6Ll.!g the effects wn
the surrounding properties resulting from the propagated shock waves and
transmitted vibrations. These vibrations can and will cause settling
of land under- foundations of houses.
2. 0 Whet is the plan of Martin-Marietta and the State of North
Carolina to monitor the operation concerning the seismic problems?
3.0 What is the plan. of Martin-Marietta to assure that the results of
their operation will not cause wells and springs to dry up? If
their operation goes into the aquifer under the granite layer, the
balance of pressure presently in existence will be changed. Many , if
not all of the permanent springs in this area result from the water
in the aquifer being under pressure and being forced to the surface
through faults in the granite layer. The existence of this pressure can
be proven by considering my well which has a depth of 270 feet. The well
was drilled through solid granite from a depth of JJ feet to a depth of
185 feet. The water level in the well is 36 feet below the surface.
I request that before the permit be granted, the State of
North Carolina obtain the services of a hydrologist to make a
determination of the effect of this quarry on the water aquifer.
Because there is no long range plan to install a municipal water
system in this end of the county, the effect of this quarry on the
domestic water of a large number of families is of more than a
trivial importance, and the final decision should not be based on
the unsubstantiated assurances of the other interested party.
4. 0 Also, if the quarry reaches the aquifer in any way, teachings
from the operation could contaminate the aquifer. Is the State of
North Carolina going to establish monitoring wells, existing or new,
which will maintain the quality of the aquifer?
Thant: you for your time.

I am not opposed to business growth in out eommun.cty. But I do
beet .that we shoutd be beteetive and watch6u.£ o6 what .type o6
industry comes to out area. I can not see that .the bene6it4 o6
a granite quaAty in .the Midtand area, in any way eompa&e with the
£iab.CZit.i.e4 an operation oS this type wouxd create.
Residentiat growth in this aAea is at a bast pace. The .trend is
coming 6tom .the Meekt.enbutg area, and hyw 27-24 E. makes this
atea very acee64ibte.
Watet is a major concern. Most te4.i.dents in the quaaq area,
ate on wetts. It wi.tt be many yeat4 be6ore water tines ate
to this area. In 6act Hwy 27-24 E coming We4t 6tom 601 is just
now hoping to obtain a watet tine, but it witt onty tun 600'
o66 o6 hwy 27-24. At this point in time, it is not a guahanteed
tine, many 6actot4 yet ate to be 4ettt.ed.
Matt.in-Matietta4' operation may and mote than tikety wit.t cause
wateA probtems to the atea. It is my unde"Landing they wilt
not be 6peci6icatty bonded Sot wate& weft 6ait.uAes. Even i6
thei& genera.£ tiabitity wouxd cove& this, it wouxd takes Yeats,
and more money than the ave&age resident coutd a66o4d to Sight

.that .i.6 an immediate pxobtem - not one a pe&son has time to remedy.

Dear Mr. Conrad;
Martin Marietta Aggregate Division has petitioned the state
for permission to mine granite at Flowes S'tore and Running
Brook Roads in southern Cabarrus County. The site of the
proposed quarry is in the cen-ler of a quiet rural residential
community. 11
I
We have several concerns abouF an industry, such as this,
being allowed to operate in 61r neighborhood.
71
Many tasks involved with ' oper,,�ting a quarry will have an
adverse affect on our neighbors' physical , mental and
emotional health and safety as well as our own. Some of these
hazards are:
V trucking, storing, handling and detonating
explosives
9 explosive contaminates running off into surface
water and ground water
t property damage from flying debris
U dust which will be inhaled, settle on property,
streams and ponds
9 sedimentation in well and surface water
9 wells going dry from blasting shock
4 wells going dry from pumping water out of the quarry
for washing stone;, reducing dust and simply to
remove water from the pit
8 80 to 100 trucks (40t ton each) tearing up the roads
while forcing cars and each other off the soft
narrow roads during their daily coming AND going
4 presence of dangerous machinery and explosives. where
children may play
4 creation of a swimming hole where people may drown

Each of the above items (*) opens a door to limitless thoughts
of possible property damage, air, water and noise polution
plus human tragedy. For instance:
3 Lloyd Kindley's home is just a- few yards from the quarry
site. He has had lung cancer surgery where a lung and voice
box were removed. He now breathes thrn+igh a hole in his
throat. Lloyd is not looking forward tto the truck and
blasting dust nor flying debris. To- him it may mean death.
* The Dixie Queen is an operating gold mine which is located
just a couple of hundred yards down stream from the pit. The
gold mine shaft actually passes under Anderson Creek. Quarry
blasting could cause the shaft to flood or cave in. This
would put the mine &id possibly humans, out of ' operation.
4 Many historical structures are 3ocated in the vicinity of
the proposed quarry.1, Several of these are listed in the
Cabarrus County Historical Guide.. We .do not want them ruined
or damagede i�
9 It seems odd that, without improving our old one lane
ur iageb, someone hn gone through the area applying stickers
to the bridge weighlfi restriction signs which increases the
weight limit. The,t; i n i ng Act of 1971 (74�-51 Permits -
Applications, grant,i�ng, conditions) states, "Priority
consideration shalr:ilbe given to applicants who submit evidence
that the mining pro;iosed will be for the purpose of supplying
materials to the Board of Transportation. " Does the odor
suggest of collusion?
* At the 9/20 public hearing (where the. Department promised to
give full consideration to all comments submitted) the
operator's representitives were not aware of a drowning in
their Midland quarry, bl-asting damage to a home -and even the
years that they owned the Midland quarry. Is this what it
means to be "dumb like a fox "?
4 We realize Martin Marietta is not legally responsible for
truck damage to public or private property. However, the
quarry would draw them like flies are drawn to garbage. Heavy
trucks will mean death to our sand based roads. They do not
stand up to car traffic. Because of the holes and ruts, it is
impossible to keels your car in your lane. Some cars even drag .
bottom in the ruts. Further compound this with the fact that
the roads are so narrow that truck cannot meet truck -- or
school bus. Martin Marietta knows that when trucks and/or
buses meet on these roads that someone must drive off the road
or collide. But even though Martin Marietta caused this they
, are not responsible for it. Same as, they are not responsible
for anyone drowning in their pit.

No one wants an irresponsible neighbor. People in this
community want people for neighbors not a noisy, dangerous
polluting industry that threatens our way of life and destroys
property value. At the , hearing, when asked how the community .
would benefit from a quarry in the neighborhood, Martin
Marietta responded, "you -should be able to get rock for your .
driveway cheaper". Residents of our community are of the
opinion that the world would continue to get along with rock
from existing quarries.
We ask -you to consider the negative consequence to our
communities life and the environment while you are deciding
the fate of this application and ours.
Sincerely,
• Glen E. Mead

Dear Mr. .Holloway:
I have been reading with much interest about the proposed Martin
Marietta Corporation rock quarry to be locatedliin the Flowe Store
area of Cabarrus County.
Our Chamber wants to be assured that mining irr. this area would be
in the interest of our citizens. It appears fifom the newspaper
articles and, from comments we received from re€�idents in the Flowe
Store area that their concerns were not answered. The impact that
a rock quarry would have on the environment is of major concern to
all of us and we are hopeful that your department would thoroughly
investigate the affects of such a mine before issuing a permit.
I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.
Yours truly,

Dear Mr. Hudspeth:
Thank you for your letter of July 28, 1984 concerning the proposed
Martin Marietta Allen Quarry.
I can appreciate your concerns and assure you that a thorough
review will be made before deciding to grant or deny the application.
G.S. 74-51 of The Mining Act of 1971 (copy enclosed) provides the
guidelines for granting or denying a mining permit. These guidelines
basically address public safety, safety to neighboring persons and
property, and environmental protection. A permit for water quality and
air quality (dust control) must also be secured by Martin Marietta
before a quarry could operate.
We are scheduling a public hearing to give you and other concerned
citizens an opportunity to be heard. The date of the public hearing is
September 20, 1984. The time and place have not been finalized but we
hope to hold the hearing in the evening in the area for the convenience
of the local residents. I will be happy to send you the notice of the
hearing when finalized. A public notice will also be posted in the
local newspaper.
If you have any questions in the interim, please feel free to write
or call me.
Sincerely,

Dear Ms. Thompson:
Thank you for your letter of July 30, 1984 concerning the proposed
Martin Marietta Allan Quarry.
G.S. 74-51 of The Mining Act 'of 1971 (copy enclosed) provides the
guidelines for granting or denying a mining permit. A quarry operator
must also obtain separate water quality and air quality permits before
operatinq. A thorough review will be made before the permit(s) are
issued or denied.
To help with',this review and to give the local residents an
opportunity to be heard, a public hearing has been scheduled for
September 20, 1984. The time and place has not been bet yet but we will
try to make it as convenient as possible and send you a copy of the
public notice when finalized.
I would be interested in learning more detail of the blasting on
this property as I was unaware that any mining had started.
Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions in the
interim.
Sincerely, --

Dear Mr. Aldridge:
Thank you for
y your letter expressing concern about the proposed
Martin Marietta Allen Quarry in Cabarrus County.
Since the public hearing on September 20, we have requested.
additional information from Martin Marietta which addresses the concerns
raised at the public hearing and by the letters we have received from
concerned citizens such as you. The additional information will be
reviewed by the various State agencies with expertise in those fields.
The Mining Act of 1971 provides certain criteria to use as a basis
' for granting or denying the mining permit. These criteria generally
include "significant" adverse impact to wildlife, water, groundwater, or
surface water quality; substantial physical hazard to the neighboring
public and structures; significant adverse impact on a publicly-owned
park; a substantial possibility of substantial offsite sedimentation;
previous uncorrected violations of the Mining Act. Certainly, many of
the points raised fall within these categories.
Apparently, some misunderstanding exists concerning the Department
of Transportation (D.O.T. ) and our review of mining permit applications.
Any reference to priority consideration to D.O.T suppliers was' never
intended to and will not compromise the Department's evaluation of an
application. Some concern has been expressed about raising load limits
on neighboring bridges. Such activities are routinely conducted by
I D.O.T. without contacting this Department. However, my office did
contact the bridge maintenance section and learned that they were not
aware of any mining permit application in the area.
I assure you the points raised in the public hearing and by your
correspondence as they relate to the Mining Act will be carefully
evaluated before a permit decision is made.
Sincerely,
Stephen G. Conrad

Re: Martin Marietta application of 7/23/84 for permit to Quarry on State
Road 1142, Cabarrus County, N. C.
Gentlemen:
I live on land that was granted to my ancestors by George III . I also have a
land grant for the same property, from the first governor of the state, Alexander
Martin. This is dated 1782 qnd ganted Frances Newell 308 acres of land. I am
living on part of this same land. The house in which I live was built by
Frances ' son William Newell in 1800. This house is built of log and has hand
hewn beams and 18 inch hand sawed, tongue:=andgggovedboards in the ceilings The
house is put together with pegs and homemade nails. The house has been protected
from the elements and is in a good state of preservation. Except for brief
periods of time, the house has been continually occupied, and the property has
never been out of the Newell familyts ow;:_.ership. This house stands approximately
1800 feet, north east of the ; proposed quarry. Due to the blasting, I feel this
house could be structurally damaged.
This is an old community that prides its self in' its heritage. There are five
other old homes in the vicinity, some in the National Register of Historical
places, ; that could also be damaged. I do not feel any should be sacrificed
for a rock quarry.
I have approximately 1200 feet that joins this quarry site, all in pasture.
This land is much needed to feed my cattle. If dust accumulates on the grass,
the cattle wIU not eat the grass and I will be out.-Aameat of the use of my
grazing land. My cattle drink' water from Anderson Creek and if the water is
polluted, they will have to drink elsewhere and I will have to change fences
to make sure they dontt drink polluted water, Further, they can now drink
from the branch, however, the brances are fed by springs. If the blasting
causes the springs to go dry, then there will be no water, at all for the cattle.
Much of my pasture is in the bottom land. If in time, the quarry has to pump
ground water from the pit, thiswill, in heavy rains flood my pastures. Again,
I will be loosing land to the quarry. Who will compensate me for these losses?
Will I have to sue Martin Marietta to recover?
I feel that my property will be put in jeopardy due to the loss of pasture to
dust and. to high water levals when the creek rises. Also the very foundation
of illy home C;Oulu be iiiluai:::iiicu.

but how do you,prove such as this?
I attended the hearing on September 20th and was shown pictures by Martin Marietta
as to how they landscaped their property, how they protected the environment from
dust and. was told what great neighbors they would be. However. I wont beleive any
of what they say. when they were questioned- about the Midland quarry, we were
told thpY didn' t know anything about it. The truth is they did not beautify the
property, they did. not protect the ground water in the pit. They ttld it.
II 11U now is r e3pVlllll U1C to safe G guard tt1G ground YV'Ci yGi?
Martin Marietta did not show pictures of their Bakers quarry. This quarry is an
eyesore. All you can see is great mountains of crushed stone. A community
covered in dust in dry weather. Is this what they call landscaping? They tell
us they will plant trees to help control the dust. It takes 20 years to grow
trees. What do we do in the meantime?
Martin Marietta was questioned about a quarry in Forsyth County" They said
they knew nothing about such a quarry. Fact is they had an option on 175 acres
of land, the people and the zoning board ruled against the quarry. Martin
Darietta sued the zoning board and the Superior Court judge threw the case out
of court. Martin Marietta then took an appeal. Martin Marietta told us they
would not go into an aeA. if there was much opposition. What do they mean by
opposition? Again, I dort beleive them.
In 1982 Martin Marietta operated 20 quarries. In 1984 they are operating 30
quarries in the state. This is a 33°bj increase in just two years. This must' be
g very profitable business. But then it should be. They have no liability.
They move in on property and a&# start their operations. If they spill over
on to other lands, you prove they are wrong.
I dont want to spent the rest of my ,life being abused by Martin Marietta and
trying to obtain just compensation for damages. There is no easy, inexpensive
way to prove such matters. To go to court will take time and more money than
one could ever recoyr-A.• We are told the water and the air will be monitored
by the state to insure the qualityis preserved. However, I cannot beleive this
either. We are told every day the state is understaffed in every field.
This arguement could go on and on and should it go to the courts it will be the
same. The best thing for you to do for the people of this community is to deny
the permit and let the people go on living as they have always done. Martin
Marietta cannot benofitYbYmmunity by its presents. All I can see they will do
is destroy and pollute he ground water and air, So they can make a fast dollar
at other peoples expense.
I hope you will weigh this matter carefully and honestly _end I pray you make
the right decision.
Respectfully,
/Mary C. Newell

Re: Proposed Martin Marietta Allen Quarry
Dear Mr. Smith:
I am replying to your letter of October 1, 1984 to .Tames Holloway
with a copy sent to me.
Mr. Holloway was acting solely as a hearing officer and has
submitted a summary of the hearing to our office. The hearing officer
is not further involved in the application review.
The State's purpose in holding the public hearing is to learn the
concerns of the local citizens. Since the public hearing is at the
beginning stages of the application review, naturally, no findings can
be offered then.
I assure you that all concerns raised within the jurisdiction of
The Mining Act of 1971 will be evaluated. We have already requested
additional information from Martin Marietta regarding several of these
points. The Department shares your concern of environmental protection.
Please advise if we can be of further assistance.

Dear Mr. Holloway:
I have been reading with much interest about the proposed Martin
Marietta Corporation rock quarry to be located in the Flowe Store
area of Cabarrus County.
Our Chamber wants to be assured that mining in this area would he
in the interest of our citizens. It appears from the newspaper
articles and from comments we received from residents in the Flove
Store area that their concerns were not answered. The i.mpactrthat
a rock quarry would have on the environment is of major concern to
all of us and we are hopeful that your department would thoroughly
investigate the affects of such a mine before issuing a -permit.
I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.
Yours truly,
President

Mr. Conrad,
This letter is in regard to the MARTIN-MARIETTA CORPORATION'S request for a
permit to operate a granite quarry in the Midland, N.C. area.
The recent hearing conducted by your Mr. James Holloway was at best, a dis-
graceful sham. As you know, the State of N.C. is one of MARTIN-MARIETTA 's
la'5v w C'u$tvlliGi a of aggregate air-id therefor, a conflict OI interest exists
which approaches common collusion.
A community that has been ear-marked for plundering by the MARTIN-MARIETTA
CORP. cannot seek protection within it's own state agencies, such as the NRCD
because of this insipid nepotism.
The fact that no MORAL tenets are considered in decisions handed down by the
NRCD regarding reining permits, illustrates that your department is a "faceless
monster" that complies with the letter of the law, but nevertheless acquiesces
in the destruction of the quality of life in such communities as Midland.
MARTIN-MARIE`1'TA CORP. is not a "good-neighbor" at all , but is in fact a
profiteering rapist. If it is beleived that the people of this State are
benefiting from better highways as a result of this corporation's presence,
while communities are being destroyed to facilitate this "progress", then I
submit that your department is a total failure and should be sued out of ex-
istence.
Sincerely,
i

Dear Mr. Conrad:
I am writing to you because of the deep concern I have
for the Martin Marietta Basic Products application for a mining
permit for a crushed stone quarry off SR 1142 near Midland in
Cabarrus County. I have been designated to write for the community
to voice our disapproval of this-quarry.
Our community has been a farming and residential area
since its existence. It is rural in nature in just about every way.
To allow a stone quarry to operate in this area would jeopardize our.
serene and fruitful way of living, not to mention the nuisance of noise
and dust and unsightliness.
We ask that you please take into consideration all of these
facts when making your decision to either grant or deny a permit for
the above-mentioned purpose. This letter may not seem to come on
very strong. We do not know what else to reintegrate to you that
would express just how stirongly weffeel on this subject. We would
= like to keep W__ far:::.ng and r esideiitiui .tyreµ J ust a s •it is , vrithout
the nuisance of this quarry operation.

Dear Mr Conrad;
This letter is in reference to the proposed Martin-Marietta quarry on Flowe Store Road, my
family and I (Ginger Helms) live on Flowe Store Road, Box 325 F Rt 2.
Please take a minute and let me tell you how I feel about the proposed quarry. We have on-
ly lived in our new home for one year, it took my husband and myself 13 years to be able to
build our first home, we worked very hard and now have put everything we had into this house.
If this proposed quarry is built, our home and land will depreciate in value, instead of in-
creasing as we had hoped for, we also feel the, following will take place if this quarry is
built;
(1 ) the depreciation in value of our home and land ( that it took us 13 years to get)
(2) traffic will increase in our area, we have two boys, which we moved out of the city
to get them in a lower traffic area
(3) our water may be unfit for our family to drink
(4) the blasting may cause structural damage to our home! This could cause our house to
settle, from the sudden jar from the blast. . What will we do then, everything we have
hoped for and dreamed of having we have put into our first home.
(5) dar,ger to the children in the neighborhood, our's and other's, our youngest son�is
sensitive to loud noise, he has a ringing in his ears when he is subjected to loud
noise, this can cause a hearing loss
(6) the danger of the quarry to children also includes all the dust they will be breath-
ing from the blasting and the traffic
We choose to make our home in a country area to rid our children of the busy traffic and
noise that is in the city. We have worked very hard to build our home (my hfishand built
our home) and we are very proud of 'our home, please consider what this will do to the fam-
ilys in our area, and how this is going to affect our value of our homes, but most of all
what it will do to. our children.
Thank you for your time, please think of us in your decision.

Dear Mr. Park:
Thank you for your letter expressing opposition to the proposed
Martin Marietta Allan Quarry in Cabarrus county,
The Mining Act of 1971 provides the criteria for the issuance of
Mining permits. These criteria are basically: (1) impact to wildlife
(2) hazard to public safety and neighboring properties (3) impact to
air, surface and ground water (4 ) impact to public parks (5) likelihood
of significant offsite sedimentation or landslides.
Before, we can evaluate the possibility of impact to air quality
and the 'Sossoman Springs,' we need to know your location. A sketch
showing your location in relation to the proposed quarry would be very
helpful.
Sincerely,
Stephen G. Conrad

Re: Proposed Martin Marietta Quarry
Cabarrus County - Flowes Store Road
Gentlemen:
I was unable to attend the public hearing held last week regarding the above
proposed granite quarry in our community. I an totally opposed to this project.
As an independent film producer, I could locate my business anywhere in the USA or
Canada. We chose the Cabarrus County area over all others for its way of life.
It is extremely disturbing to see our community being invaded by profiteers whose
only desire is to enhance their position.
Since coming to this country, we have seen an unwanted dirt race track established
within one mile of our home. The noise, dust, dirt and litter created by this
eyesore alone has convinced us that rural living in the Carolinas is game of
politics subject to the whirls of county commissioners.
As an athmatic I cannot safely breath air that approaches the limit on state air
quality standards. I believe that blasting would substantially increase my risk
of having recurrent breathing problems.
Finally, as the owner of the historic "Sossoman Springs", I am concerned that my
mineral springs could be disturbed by the seismic activity of blasting.
I am almost convinced that the pleasant rural lifestyle which brought us to the
Carolinas is going the route of the dinosaur. At least I have the option of
locating my business elsewhere in the country.

Dear Mr. Stephen G. Conrad
I am writting in concern of the proposed Martin-Marrietta quarry
on Flowe Store Road.
I am wiitting in order to help get this Rock Quarry stop. We are
agaist this ourselfes for our youngest son has Allergies and the
dust from the Quarry will not help his problem at all. Plus this
Quarry could interfear with the drinking-water also the blasting
could close our water veins up and could cause walls and "ceilings
to crack in. our homes. This dust will interfear with our crops and
feeding the live stock.
Second important problem is the big trucks going in and out tear-
ing up the roads and causing heavey traffic to be on Flowe Store
Road.It will also e- unsafe for our children to be on tints
small road with these big trucks in the buses and cars that they
will have to travel in each day back and forth to school each day.
Very Concerned Flowe Store Road Resident;

Gentlemen:
We are writing this letter in reference to the application made to your depart-
ment by Martin Marietta Basic Products, Aggregates Division.
Our home is located on Flowe's Store Road adjoining the western side of the pro-
perty sought by Martin Marietta. We are highly opposed to this company mining
the 135 acres located in the community in which our home is located.
In giving this matter considerable thought, we have determined numerous disadvan-
tages in mining for granite in a residential area. The following items are of
great concern to us as land owners and home owners:
A. Such mining is likely to cause damage to our home (i.e. , blasting with dyna-
mite may crack the walls and/or foundation of our home) .
B. Mining will undoubtedly cause increased accumulation of dust in the
atmosphere surrounding our home.
C. Mining will affect the quality of the roads, especially Running Brook and
F'lowe's Store Roads, due to increased traffic of heavy equipment and trucks.
D. Minining in the community will cause a significant decrease in the current
value of our property and home.
E. Loud blasting and noise of machinery may be harmful to farm animals (i .e.
cows, horses, fowl located on our property) .
Please consider the aforementioned concerns before granting a mining permit to
Martin Marietta. We have always had the intention of living in our home through
retirement age. Living directly acros; from a rock quarry does not sound very
feasible or pleasant from the standpoint of homeowners of nineteen years.

Dear Mr. Conrad,
We are writing this letter to express our opposition to the proposed
Martin-Marietta quarry on Flowes Store Rd. in Concord, N.C. Our objections
to having such a quarry in our area are as follows;
1. High risk of groundwater contamination.
2. Decreased property values.

3. Damage from bl astinns tn ­Ur-"m nrlinrn Qi-rriini-iinac_ .
4. Truck traffic by our home and resulting damage to our roads.
5. Contamination to the air. ( our son has asthma so this of great
concern to us.)
We are proud of the close knit, quiet community that we live in and we
hate to see it rained by this prepeded stone quarry,..Any help or consideration
you could give us concerning this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Being an adjoining land owner, I acknowledge receipt of the
above referenced notice of intent. This letter is to inform
you that I strongly oppose such an operation, and request
a hearing on the matter.
I have been contacted by members of this community and all are
upset over this proposal. These members do not have adjoining
property to the proposed q1uan., site, ho.�:ever they are �n close
proximity to the site and, therefor will be greatly affected
by such an operation. They further feel they should have
- been notified the same as adjoining property owners and given
the oppertunity to express their views.
As you well know, a quarry cannot be contained. on the owned
property, but rather, will spill over on to other property.
This will be in the form of extreme dust, noise and heavy
traffic. In all fairness to the Flowes Store Community, I
urge you to hold a Bearing on this matter before any action
is taken.

Surface Mining Permit
Gentlemen:
Our firm has been contacted by Jim W. Parks who is the owner
relating to the above application for a mining permit. Mr. Parks is
the owner of land immediately adjacent to the proposed mining site
and resides thereon with his wife and family. Although the specific
details of the mining operation have not been made known at this
time, Mr. Parks feels that the applicant's operations will have a
substantial negative impact on the surrounding landowners and home-
owners as well as concerns for the environmental impact. He is in
the process of meeting with the adjoining neighbors and the people
in the surrounding residential area who have similar concerns.
It is specifically requested that a public hearing be conducted
and that further details of the proposed mining operations be provided
to the local community through Mr. Parks in the meantime.

Gentlemen:
I am responding to your notification of application for a mining permit sought
by Martin Marietta Basic Products, Aggregates Division.
I currently own land which joins the 135 acres of property Martin Marietta is
seeking as their site for mining granite. In March of 1984, I began building
a house on the land adjoining this proposed site. This untimely news is extre-
mely disturbing. When I chose this location for my new home, I was totally
unaware that such plans were being considered for the land, which is directly
across the road from the front of my home.
As a new home owner and property owner, I forsee the following repercussions
with the implementation of mining in the proposed area:
1. Depreciation of the value of land and home.
2. Damage to walls and/or foundation of home caused by blasting.
3. Possible damage to well on property (blasting may cause veins in earth to
close, preventing flow of water) .
4. Air poiiution (i .e., dust, exhausts from mining equipment) .
5. Noise pollution (i.e. blasting with dynamite, sounds from operation of heavy
equipment, big trucks starting and stopping at intersections in front of
home) .
6. Destruction of newly navPd road adinininn nrnnncad cita of mining IFlnwolc
Store Road) .
In conclusion, I would like to make your department fully aware of my position
in this matter. Had I known about Martin Marietta's intentions for the proposed
site of the rock quarry, I would have reconsidered constructing a home on my
property! Due to this notification and its possible consequences, I feel I have
been cheated out of the enjoyment of erecting a new home. The people in this
community should be given much consideration in such a ridiculous proposal for a
residential area.
Si .rely,

TO: Anne Taylor
FROM: Jim Simons
SUBJECT: . Recent Martin Marietta Quarry Application
Per your request, I have prepared this summary memo.
Martin Marietta applied for a mining permit for a mining permit for a
crushed stone quarry on July 10, 1984 for the Lucia Quarry in Gaston
County and on July 25, 1984 for the Allan Quarry in Cabarrus County.
Public hearings on the mining permit application were held on
August 27 for the Lucia Quarry and on September 20 for the Allan Quarry.
I am attaching a copy of a memo to Jim Summers from Steve Conrad
which still gives the current status of our review of the Lucia Quarry
application. The current status of the Allan Quarry review is similar.
In both cases, additional information will be requested from Martin
Marietta; other appropriate agencies have or will be asked to assist in
the reviews the issues raised by the public hearing and numerous letters
are being carefully reviewed to see how the Mining Act can apply.
In short, we are just getting started in both reviews.
Please advise if we can provide additional information.

MEMORANDUM
TO: James A. Summers, Secretary
FROM: Stephen G. Conrad, Director
SUBJECT: Proposed Martin Marietta Lucia Quarry
Gaston County
The above application for a mining permit for a crushed stone
quarry was received on July 10, 1984. A public hearing on the proposed
quarry was held near Lucia on August 27 in response to several letters
from neighboring residents and a petition opposing the quarry. Since
the public hearing, we have received over 20 letters opposing the
quarry.
The residents have raised many concerns including the adverse
impact from noise, dust, water pollution, blasting vibrations,
groundwater depletion, decreased property values, and increased truck
traffic. We are currently reviewing the concerns raised at the public
hearing and from the correspondence to see how The Mining Act of 1971
may address their concerns. As you may recall from your involvement in
the quarry application next to Umstead State Park, the authority to deny
mining permits is limited by G.S. 74-51 to certain criteria. These
criteria generally include: significant adverse impact to wildlife,
public safety, water, air, or groundwater quality, or public park,
forest or recreation area.
we have requested from the operator a more detailed mine location
map showing the mine site and neighboring houses and have requested
review assistance from DEM and Wildlife Resources Commission. After
reviewing the new mining map, it is likely that we will request the
operator to do additional study.
In summary, we are still in the early stages of this application
review.
Please advise if I can provide further information.

Dear Mr. Park:
I received your letter of October 11, 1984 with the accompanying
information and will try to address your points:
(1) Wildlife -- The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission has
been asked to review the application for impact to wildlife. Certainly,
bald eagles would receive special protection if found to be inhabiting in
the proposed permit area or nearby.
(2) Truck traffic - The Attorney General's Office has advised me in the
past that offsite truck traffic is not covered by The Mining Act of 1971
but is subject to highway safety rules and regulations.
Concerning air quality, surface and ground water, and blasting,
further study has been requested of Martin Marietta to determine
possible impact to surrounding areas. These studies will be carefully
reviewed when submitted.
Blasting is a specialized engineering practice. Explosives are
loaded and wired in holes drilled in the rock. The blasting is set off
by electricity in a series of delays so that a large amount can be shot
without the cumulative impact of a single large blast. The "shot rock"
collapses at the toe of the rock faco. The dirt. and duct crPatPri by
blasting generally settles in the immediate proximity of the blast.
I cannot at this time give estimates of air or sediment pollution.
Air quality and sedimentation prevention are covered by State laws.
The possible life of a quarry can vary considerably based on market
conditions and extent of the deposit which are obviously not under State
control. A mining permit is issued for 10 years maximum, but is
renewable.

Dear Mr, Conrad:
Thank you for your letter of 10/1/84 in response of my earlier
letter.
I am enclosing a copy of a Cabarrus County Map showing my exact
location relative to the proposed Martin Marietta Quarry. As you
can see I am less than one mile east of the proposed quarry and
sandwiched between an unwanted dirt race track and the Little
tract. (The current owners of the proposed quarry land. )
I am sending along copies of letters relative to the race track
and the continuing problems we have faced with them.
With respect to your letter and the five (5) criteria for issuance
of mining permits, I believe you should consider the following :
Criteria #1 - Im2aact on Wildlife
If you review The Concord Tribune over the past year, you will
find a cover story about several bald eagles nesting in Cabarrus
County. These eagles are nesting in our part of the County.
Aren' t they protected by specific endangered species legislation?
We view these birds on a regular basis! Additionally, we have the
following animals in our woods population---great horned owls,
fox, possum, buzzards, several varieties of woodpeckers , game
birds, etc. , which will be disturbed from their natural habitat if
Martin Marietta is permitted to operate the proposed quarry.

Mr. Stephen G. Conrad
Page 2
f1n+4nhar 7 1 1 OOA
Criteria #2 - Hazard to Public Safety and Neighboring Properties
Flowes Store Road which borders the Martin Marietta proposed
quarry is already a heavily traveled, winding, curving and
dangerous road. Adding 100+ slow moving heavy equipment trucks
will create a safety hazard to all area drivers, cyclists, horse
riders, walkers and especially county children who are not use to
city like traffic. I fear for their well being, especially in
that the proposed quarry will not be fenced or in any way deter
curious youngsters.
Criteria #3 - Impact to .air,_ surface and groundwater
I have enunciated my concern for the quality of air breathable to
someone like myself--a chronic asthmatic.
I cannot physically tolerate changes in air quality standards and
would be forced to move my business elsewhere. I 'm sure I am not
alone in my concern for others especially the aged residents of
our community who suffer from emphysema, brown lung and other
breathing disorders. I believe that the blasting will disturb
ground water quality and quantity which cannot be corrected once
it is altered. As the owner of the historic Sossoman Springs, I
will advance every legal remedy available if 'my springs are
somehow affected by the proposed quarry. I have enclosed
supporting articles, documents, etc. , establishing the Springs as
a historic site.
Criteria #4 - Impact to Public Parks
We have no public parks in our part of the county and in fact are
in dire need of this type of public recreation. Perhaps, the
current owner or Martin Marietta will consider the well being of
our area residents and donate the land in question to the county
for use as public recreation. A public park with complete
facilities for swimming, fishing, softball, etc. , would be a first
for the residents of southern Cabarrus County and greatly
appreciated.
Criteria #5 - Likelihood of significant opposite sedimentation or
landsliders
Please explain to me the entire blasting process . I would
..� �. 7 : L.. 4� L..r.... ... r "p"o i-�
especially 11ike \.V J%I Jv7 WLI[1 AA LiJj.I c:&A
particles that are created by the blasting.

Mr. Stephen G. Conrad
Page 3
October 11 , 1984
How much additional air pollution do you estimate will be created
and consumed by area residents. How much sediment as estimated by
your office can our water supply, surface and ground tolerate
before creating an irreversible situation. What is the life span
of the quarry? Are area creeks , rivers, etc. , already so
polluted that reclamation is never planned?
Finally, Martin Marietta has nearly Matthews Quarry which could
easily supply all the crushed rock the company plans to sell the
state of North Carolina for the paving of Route 27 (Albemarle
Road) . Can a penny or two savings per ton of crushed rock be that
desirable an alternative to altering and endangering the lifestyle
and pursuit of happiness of an entire community?

Dear Mr. Conrad:
I am writing to document my comments of September 20, 1984 at the
Bethel School Public Hearing concerning a proposed Martin Marietta
Rock Quarry on State Road 1142 in Cabarrus County. I represent,
as spokesman, the attached list of residents of this community.
The community into which this proposed quarry will be thrust is
strictly a rural residential community without the slightest vestige
of industrial activity. It is characterized, historically, as an agri-
cultural community; however, in recent years considerable residential
development has taken place. Nearly all of the newer residents came
here to pursue a rural, pastoral life style. Martin Marietta showed
complete indifference to this and other related issues by their arro-
gance and flippant, trivial answers to serious issues raised by com-
munity residents. Performances such as occurred at that hearing
raise serious question as to Martin Marietta's desire or ability to
perform according to the provisions of the 1971 Mining Act, prevailing
stut� and ivart. Vrdinalla.e."7, sild •:ci LCU Ly 11UL W1Li1111 the �1f'iAC:il]leS OI
"being a good neighbor" which are constantly quoted by Martin
Marietta.
Based on the potential detrimental impact of the proposed quarry. we
respectfully request denial of this application by your department. A
list of the concerns which we feel apply to this permit are discussed
below.
i\L/Lhin is more inherent than €t miar, s right to life. Mr. !Parry Lloyd
Kindley lives immediately adjacent to the proposed quarry and is the
closest resident to the proposed pit, access road and plant/stockpile
area. In fact, Mr. Kindley is directly in the downwind path of
prevailing winds for this area. I attach letters from his medical
doctor and his surgeon with regards to the serious compromise of this
man's life which would be invoked by placing the quarry adjacent to
his property.
RECEIVED
OCT 2
DIV.4F LAND RES.

Mr. Steven Conrad -2- September 26, 1984
Numerous historically significant structures would also be degraded or
damaged by the existence of the proposed quarry. Immediately
adjacent to the proposed site is the Newell house. Also in close
proximity are Bogers Chapel, Cedar Grove Church, Flowes Store, the
Zeb Linker house, and the Freeman Jones house.
The application as submitted by Martin Marietta is unnecessarily
vague on Page 5, deliberately misrepresents the potential hazards of
ground vibrations and the effectiveness of their preventative measures.
They state, "Where necessary rows of trees or a vegetated earth
berm will be established between excavation and neighboring property
to serve as a noise and vibration barrier." This deliberate misrepre-
sentation alone is grounds for denial of this permit. No amount of
overburden berm can serve to dampen or reduce seismic activity in
underlying bedrock, nor will air borne sound shock waves be dampened
by any consequential degree. Their testimony at the September 20
hearing would have us believe the impact of blasting on nearby homes
would be equivalent to that of a screen door slamming by a playful
child. Discussions with residents and businessmen in the vicinity of
existing Martin Marietta quarries confirms that physical damage fre-
quently occurs. One visit to the post office at the Woodleaf Quarry
will convince even the strictest skeptic of the damage caused by
quarry blasting. Inspection of numerous properties in the vicinity of
Arrowwood and Fountain will serve to confirm this fact.
Physical hazard also exists indirectly in the form of destruction of
public property such as the rural roads over which trucks must
travel to access the quarry. The access roads are rural/residential
in nature and were asphalted over a sand base; they are subsequently
inadequate to handle the sustained loads which will be caused by this
operation. Flowes Store Road, S.R. 1132, is heavily traveled by
students driving to Central Caharr„s High School. That road Wnd
many others, especially S.R. 1142, Running Brook Road, will not
permit the safe passage of a tractor/trailer and a school bus. This
represents extreme physical hazard. Martin Marietta has repeatedly
stated that road hazards are not of their concern and if the roads
break down, we should turn to the state for redress. They have no
answer to whom grievances should be filed if tragically a child is
maimed or killed due to the creation of this hazard in the midst of a
rural residential community.
North Carolina ambient air quality standards require the suspended
particulate matter not exceed 75 micrograms per cubic meter annual
geometric mean, or 159 micrograms per cubic meter maximum 24-hour
concentration not to be exceeded more than once per year. The state
maintained sampling program in Cabarrus County indicates that the
ambient Ioad without the quarry is presently at 40 micrograms per
cubic meter annual geometric mean. It is highly improbable that
these standards could be met. Given the state of Mr. Kindley's
health, it is incumbent upon the state to conduct air dispersion

Mr. Steven Conrad -3- September 26, 1984
modeling studies using the EPA particulate matter emission factors for
granite quarrying operations, including blast emission factors and
wind borne dust from access roads during off hours and weekends
and holidays. It is my understanding that Martin Marietta has not
yet applied for the necessary permits regarding air and water quality.
Submitting an application (AQ-22) after ,issuance of a mining permit
and commencement of quarrying operation is contradictory to the
intent of the 1971 Mining Act.
The most precious of all commodities to a rural residential area is
ground water. All homes in this area are totally dependent upon well
water from an aquifer residing in the granite formation in which the
proposed blasting will be conducted. This aquifer is essentially a
fractured rock system, and, as such, is subject to restructuring by
repeated seismic activity. This question is not addressed by the
Martin Marietta application. No hydrological studies have been con-
ducted in this area except a very broad survey which was conducted
in 1952, that study did not address in detail this particular area.
Slnce t he wept i of the quarry will exceed that of many wens in the
area, it is reasonable to believe that some degree of flooding will
occur as considerable artesian pressure exists in many areas in this
rock formation. Martin Marietta previously abandoned a quarry in
Midland in the early 1960's approximately five or six miles from the
proposed site. Sustained pumping of the quarry of ground water and
the attendant surface drainage will severely overburden the small
farm pond into which they propose to clarify the pit water. This
pond would then become the collection point for far more water than
it could possibly handle. No emergency spillways exist and the
overflow system is inadequate to handle a major load increase such as
a quarry or even a major storm.
The site plan also shows that this pond exists on a location designated
for future pit expansion. What happens then? How will pit water
clarification be handled? This plan also shows pit expansion into the
existing stream bed of Anderson Creek. Martin Marietta states on
Page 9 of their application that they do not feel it will be necessary
to divert any existing drainage channels. Which do we believe? The
site appears to be unsuitable for possible relocation without major
environmental impact. I would anticipate that additional property
would also be necessary to implement any relocation.
Significant quantities of fines will be accumulated by the dust suppres-
sion techniques. What safety measures are being taken with regard
to the settling basins. How will they dispose of fines once the basins
are full?
Will temperature adjusting facilities be installed to insure that effluent
discharge (pit water) meets applicable state or federal standards?
Should not Martin Marietta have A NPDE:S permit for pit water p,rior to
r
approval of this application? How can an objective assessment of
their plans be made without the NPDES Permit?

Mr. Steven Conrad -4- September 26, 1984
The berm and natural vegetative barrier proposals are blatantly
inadequate to protect the adjoining property owners from noise, visual
unsightliness, and damage from thrown rocks.
Martin Marietta states that they will allow the pit to fill with ground
water upon termination of their activities, and it could be used for
water storage, recreational, or other uses. This statement is a
euphemism for negligent abandonment. That abandonment and the
ensuing hazards are forever!
In summary, it is our opinion that the application is superficially
prepared, replete with vagueness and deliberate misrepresentation.
We respectfully appeal for denial of this permit by your department.
Sincerely,
Dennis C. Shultz

RE: Harry Loyd Kindley.
Rt. 1, Box 229
Midland, N. C. 28107
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: s
The above named individual has been a patient orb for the past
nine years. He underwent a laryngectomy approximately nine years ago
for carcinoma of the larynx. He therefore is an obligatory neck breather
without normal filtration process of the nose.
He has subsequently had a lung resection for a carcinoma of the lung
and only has a right lung and therefore has diminished breathing capacity.
He has problems with intermittent recurrent bronchitis.
He has related the plan to place a rock quarry next to his home.
The attendant dust associated with such an endeavor and the dmst from the
gravel trucks traveling up and down the road could seriously impair his ability
to breathe and function in a fashion normal for him.
I feel serious consideration should be given to locating the quarry in
another area further from this patient's home due to the potential for serious
compromise of his life and breathing status.
Sinc "ly,

To Whom It May Concern:
Mr. Harry Lloyd Kindley had removal of his larynx with a tracheotomy by
Dr. Lynn A. Hughes in January of 1978. In November of 1978 he was found to
have a cancer of the left lung and the left lung was removed.
Because of the abscence of his larynx and only one lung, he' has considerable
breathing problems. Dust or any air pollutions would be extremely detrimental
to his health.
Sincerely,

OFFICE OF ADMINISTRATIVE HEARINGS
October 3, 1984
TO: Steve Conrad, Director
Diviainn of Land RPanllrepA
FROM: Jim Holloway, Director
Office of Administrative Hearings
SUBJECT: Summary of Public Hearing held September 20, 1984, and
written comments submitted, pursuant to NCGS 74-51 and
15 NCAC 5B .0011, on the Mining Permit Application of
Martin Marietta dated July 23, 1984.
James Simons, Steve Allred and Jerry Cook appeared for the Division
of Land Resources.
Horace Willson, Leonard Mangum, Carol Cameron, Buck Powell, John
Long, Gene Woodllef, Mike Pertsch and Bob Edwards appeared for Martin
Marietta. In addition, Ed Floyd, a civil engineer and hydrogeologist on
retainer with Martin Marietta answered questions.
One hundred and thirty four ".314".1 per-sons atten-ded the public
hearing, and there was a request made by 104 persons to receive a copy
of this report. Our office is providing same via first-class mail.
Attached are copies of written comments submitted, before and after the
public hearing, relative to this mining permit application.
Subsequent to my brief opening comments relative to the nature of
the public hearing, Jim Simons proceeded to discuss NCGS 74-51,
specifically subsections (1) - (7) thereof the criteria of the Mining
L_ r" .Li..S. a1S T1� ..ram -� �..�..�J�. whether
..r �.. ;..
!ve t1f:C:ULding W WILL 11 411C lJCpaLUMre LLt UCLCLWinell IAhether or not LV issue
a mining permit.
Thereafter, Martin Marietta, in the persons of Horace Willson and
Carol Cameron, made an oral and visual presentation relative to what
Martin Marietta has proposed. Mr. Willson stated that there was high
grade granite on the proposed site and that air and water permits, which
would be required in addition to a miming permit, would provide adequate
safeguards for people living in the vicinity. Further, he stated that
the operation would:
- not be visible from the road (SR 1132 and 1142)
- result in no dust or debris leaving the site
- have a 500' buffer to deaden noise
- result in only a 2% increase in traffic on Hwy. 24/27 and
8% on SR 1132 (Flower Store Rd.)
- leave property values unchanged

. i ■
- not affect groundwater more than 500' from the operation
- involve blasting twice per weak
Following the presentation of Martin Marietta, an opportunity was
afforded those who wished to give comments or ask questions. The
following general subject areas, more specifically discussed below, were
mentioned either at the public hearing, in written comments submitted or
both: groundwater, effects of blasting, traffic/road concerns, matters
relative to the law or permit process and the existing nature or use of
this area. Not all of the concerns below are pertinent per NCGS 74-51.
I. Groundwater
If there was a paramount concern voiced, it was the effect the
proposed quarry would have on groundwater. Many wondered if the water
table would be lowered, if artesian wells would be contaminated or go
dry because of seismic activity, and whether residents could expect
Martin Marietta to correct, if not anticipate, problems without forcing
residents to take the initiative. A related concern was voiced relative
to hV GpLVGLtGLrVYVfOGGiVO :L:: �40vi 'Crack TV ; pLiY"LL
sedimentation.
II. Effects of Blasting
Concern was raised as to the adverse effect blasting may have on
persons, livestock, structures and a nearby natural gas pipeline. One
resident 400 feet from the proposed operation has had his larynx and
lung removed, and he and others fear their health may suffer, primarily

quality. Also, questions were raised concerning the possibility of
offeite dust and flying debris from blasting.
III. Traffic/Road Concerns
Several comments were made relative to whether or not Running Brook
Road (SR 1142) would eventually be closed to citizen traffic, against
their wishes, because of the mining operation. Many were troubled by
the increase in traffic the operation would bring to roads in this
vicinity, with the fear that this would cause a decrease in safety, more
than normal wear and tear on road surfaces and related.
IV. Permit Process and A livable Law
A speaker at the September 20, 1984 public hearing contended that
the mining permit application of Martin Marietta was vague and contained
misrepresentations. Two participants felt it inappropriate that
_priority consideration- be given to mining operations providing
materials to the Department of Transportation per NCGS 74--51. Martin
Marietta acknowledged it would be providing materials to the Department
of Transportation.
Another speaker questioned why this locality would be forced to
bear the burden of state imposed action, in .the form of granting the
permit.

Several persons feared expansion of the proposed initial operation
into adjacent areas. It was stated that once Martin Marietta had an
approved permit, it would be considerably easier for it to receive a
modification of the permit. Many were troubled by reclamation and the
hazard or potential hazard remaining subsequent to abandonment of the
operation, particularly when water fills an abandoned pit.
V. Existing Nature or Use of This Area
Many have emphasized that this area is rural, residential and
generally free of industry. There was concern expressed relative to the
appearance of the operation and fear that it would be unsightly and
noisy. Devaluation of property values and detriments outweighing
benefits was repeatedly mentioned.
Martin Marietta representatives sought to answer the questions
raised, after which the public hearing adjourned at approximately 10:00
P.M.

Dean Mr. Conrad:
i am writing to you because of the deep concern I have
for the Martin Marietta Basic Products application for a mining
permit for a crushed stone quarry off SR 1142 near Midland in
Cabarrus County. I have been designated to write for the community
to vnir-P nitr rlicannrr►val of thic miarry
Our community has been a farming and residential area
since its existence. It is rural in nature in just about every way.
To allow a stone quarry to operate in this area would jeopardize our
serene and fruitful way of living, not to mention the nuisance of noise
and dust and unsightliness.
We ask that you please take into consideration all of these
facts when making your decision to either grant or deny a permit for
the above-mentioned purpose. This letter may not seem to come on
very strong. We do not know what else to reintegrate to you that
would express just how strongly we feel on this subject. We would
like to keep our farming and residential :area just as it is , without
the nuisance of this quarry operation.
Sincerely,
,Mrs. ineco r.

Dear Mr Conrad;
This letter is in reference to the proposed Martin-Marietta quarry on Flowe Store Road, my
family and I (Ginger Helms) live on Flowe Store Road, Box 325 F Rt 2.
Please take a minute and let me tell you how I feel about the proposed quarry. We have on-
ly lived in our new home for one year, it took my husband and myself 13 years to be able to
build our first home, we worked very hard and now have put everything wehad into this house.
If this proposed quarry is built, our home and land will depreciate in value, instead of in-
creasing as we had hoped for, we also feel the. following will take place if this quarry is
built;
(1 ) the depreciation in value of our home and land ( that it took us 13 years to get)
(2) traffic will increase in our area, we have two boys, which we moved out of the city
to get them in a lower traffic area
(3) our water .may be unfit for our family to drink
(4) the blasting may cause structural damage to our home! This could cause our house to
settle, from the sudden jar from the blast. What will we do then, everything we have
hoped for and dreamed of having we have put into our first home.
(5) danger to the children in the neighborhood, our's and other's, our youngest son is
sensitive to loud noise, he has a ringing in his ears when he is subjected to loud
noise, this can cause a hearing loss
(6) the danger of the quarry to children also includes all the dust they will be breath-
ing from the blasting and the traffic
We choose to make our home in a country area to rid our children of the busy traffic and
noise that is in the city. We have worked very hard to build our home (my husband built
our home) and we are very proud of our home, please consider what this will do to the fam-
ilys in our area, and how this is going to affect our value of our homes, but most of all
what it will do to our children.
Thank you for your time, please think of us in your decision.
T ank you,

Dear Mr. Conrad,
The people in the. Flowe Store Road area of Midland, NC are in
desperate need of your support to help us prevent the rock
quarry project that Martin-Marietta Co. 5 Marshall Little
are proposing. 'Why should our beautiful, quiet community
be ruined by this?
We can see only these results ; the air will be affected
by the dust and noise , our water table will be affected
(please see the attached water analysis of our well) . The
water is-already contaminated with sulfur bacteria. and
our roads will be torn up by the continuous traffic of the
heavy dump trucks . What about our livestock and pets? How
are they going to be affected by the constant dynamiting?
A rock quarry should be confined to the commercial sites
and not even be considered for a residential area.
We ask, how can Marshall Little do this to the people he
has known all his life? Is money so important to him that
he will ruin our community?
Again, we. ask for your kind consideration and support agaist
this proposed matter.
Sincerely ,
Mr. h Mrs . Robert L . '"le-ave.-

4 agaist this ourselfes for our youngest son has Allergies and the
dust from the Quarry will not help his problem at all. Plus this
a Quarry could interfear with the drinking-water also the blasting
could close our water veins up and could cause walls and ocilings
o' c_•-ack in our homes. This dust will interfear with our crops and
,a t feeding the live stock.
ova Second important problem is the big trucks going in and out tear-
ing up the roads and causing heavey traffic to be on Flowe Store
Road.It will also be unsafe for our children to be on this
4* small road with these big trucks in the buses and cars that they
o0os ° will have to travel in each day back and forth to school each day.

Gentlemen:
We are writing this letter in reference to the application made to your depart-
rnent by Martin Marietta Basic Products, Aggregates Division.
Our home is located on Flowe's Store Road adjoining the western side of the pro-
perty sought by Martin Marietta. We are highly opposed to this company mining
the 135 acres located in the community in which our home is located.
in giving this matter considerable thought, we have determined numerous disadvan-
tages in mining for granite in a residential area. The following items are of
great concern to us as land owners and home owners:
k
Such mining is likely to cause damage to our home ( i.e., blasting with dyna-
mite may crack the walls and/or foundation of our home) .
Mining will undoubtedly cause increased accumulation of dust in the
u.o atmosphere surrounding our home.
ate`
Mining will affect the quality of the roads, especially Running Brook and
s Flowe's Store Roads, due to increased traffic of heavy equipment and trucks.
p ° Minining in the community will cause a significant decrease in the current
` a value of our property and home.
^ Loud blasting and noise of machinery may be harmful to farm animals (i .e.
cows, horses, fowl located on our property) .
consider the aforementioned concerns before granting a mining permit to
" Kit ietta. We have always had the intention of living in our home through
r`"'�''�' age. Living directly across from a rock quarry does not sound very
pleasant from the standpoint of homeowners of nineteen years.

Dear Mr. Conrad,
We are writing this letter to express our opposition to the proposed
Martin-Marietta quarry on Flowes Store Rd. in Concord, N.C. Our objections
to having such a quarry in our area are as follows ;
1. High risk of groundwater contamination.
2. Decreased property values.
3_ Damage from blasting to surrounding structures.
4. Truck traffic by our home and resulting damage to our roads.
5. Contamination. to the air. ( our son has asthma so this of great
concern to us.)
We are proud of the close knit, quiet community that we live in and we
'a.
sa hate is see it ruined by this pr©pvded stone quarry. Any help or consideration
a
you could give us concerning this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,

Surface Mining Permit
Gentlemen:
Our firm has been contacted by Jim W. Parks who is the owner
relating to the above application for a mining permit. Mr. Parks is
the owner of land immediately adiacent to the proposed mining site
and resides thereon with his wife and family. Although the specific
details of the mining operation have not been made known at this
time, Mr. Parks feels that the applicant's operations will have a
substantial negative impact on the surrounding landowners and home-
owners as well as concerns for the environmental impact. He is in
the process of meeting with the adjoining neighbors and the people
in the surrounding residential area who have similar concerns.
It i_ cnnrifirnlly rentinsted that a public hearing be conducted
and that further details of the proposed mining operations be provided
to the local community through Mr. Parks in the meantime.

Gentlemen:
I am responding to your notification of application for a mining permit sought
by Martin Marietta Basic Products, Aggregates Division.
I currently own land which joins the 135 acres of rrvperty martir, Marietta is
seeking as their site for mining granite. In March of 1984, I began building
a house on the land adjoining this proposed site. This untimely news is extre-
mely disturbing. When I chose this location for my new home, I was totally
unaware that such plans were being considered for the land, which is directly
across the road from the front of my home.
As a new home owner and property owner, I forsee the following repercussions
with the implementation of mining in the proposed area:
I. Depreciation of the value of land and home.
2. Damage to walls and/or foundation of home caused by blasting.
3. Possible damage to well on property (blasting may cause veins in earth to
close, preventing flow of water).
4. Air pollution (i.e. , dust, exhausts from mining equipment) .
5. Noise pollution (i .e. blasting with dynamite, sounds from operation of heavy
equipment, big trucks starting and stopping at intersections in front of
home) . _
6. Destruction of newly payed road adjoining proposed site of mining (riowe's
Store Road) .
In conclusion , I would like to make your department fully aware of my position
in this matter. Had I known about Martin Marietta's intentions for the proposed
site of the rock quarry, I would have reconsidered constructing a home on my
property! Due to this notification and its possible consequences, I feel I have
been cheated out of the enjo.yment ,of erecting a new home. The people in this
community should be given much consideration in such a ridiculous proposal for a
residential area.
Sincerely, ,r

Gentlemen;
Concerning the issuance of a mining permit to the Martin--Marietta
Aggregates group, I am asking the fallowing rnm--*inns_
1 .0 Has a geophysical study been done for this part of North Carolina
which establishes the velocities, damping, and thus ,the limit of travel
of shock waves resulting from the blasting in the proposed quarry? The
re$LtIts of such a study could be applied to predicting the effects on
the surrounding properties resulting from the propagated shock waves and
transmitted vibrations. These vibrations. .can and will cause settling
of land under foundations of houses.
2. 0 What is the plan of Martin-Marietta and the State of North
Carolina to monitor the operation concerning the seismic problems?
3.0 What is the plan. of Martin-Marietta to assure that the results of
their operation will not cause wells and springs to dry up? If
their operation goes into the aquifer under the granite layer, the
balance of pressure presently in existence will be changed. Many, if
not all of the permanent springs in this area result from the water
in the aquifer being under pressure and being forced to the surface
through faults in the granite layer. The existence of this pressure can
be proven by considering my well which has a depth of 270 feet. The well
was drilled through solid granite from a depth of 55 feet to a depth of
185 feet. The water level in the well is 36 feet below the surface.
I request that before the permit be granted, the State of
North Carolina obtain the services of a hydrologist to make a
determination of the effect of this quarry on the water aquifer.
Because there is no long range plan to install a municipal water,
system in this end of the county, the effect of this quarry on the
domestic water of a large number of families is of more than a
trivial importance, and the final decision should not be based on
the unsubstantiated assurances of the other interested party.
4. 0 Also, if the quarry reaches the aquifer in any way, leachings
from the operation could contaminate the aquifer. Is the State of
North Carolina going to establish monitoring wells, existing or new,
which will maintain the quality of the aquifer?
Thank you for your time.

Mr. S. G. Conrad
Division Director of Land Resources 5�

and Community Development �� ; 1g

Dear Mr. Conrad; ti
Martin Marietta Aggregate Division has petitioned the state
for permission to mine granite at F1 owes Stare and Running
Brook Roads in southern Cabarrus County. The site of the
proposed quarry is in the center of a quiet rural residential
community.
We have several concerns about an industry, such as this, i
being allowed to operate in our neighborhood. i
Many tasks involved with operating a quarry will have an
adverse affect on our neighbors' physical , mental and
emotional health and safety as well as our own. Some of these
hazards are:
* trucking, storing, handling and detonating
explosives
0 explosive contaminates running off into surface
water and ground water
t property damage from flying debris
* dust which will be inhaled, settle on property,
streams and ponds
* sedimentation in well and surface water
9 wells going dry from blasting shock
* wells going dry from pumping water out of the quarry
for washing stone, reducing dust and simply to
remove water from the pit
* 80 to 100 trucks (40+ ton each) tearing up the roads
while forcing cars and each other off the soft
narrow roads during their daily coming AND going
* presence of dangerous machinery and explosives where
children may play
9 creation of a swimming hole where people 'may drown

Each of the above items opens a door to limitless thoughts
Of possible property damage, air, water and noise polution
plus human tragedy. For instance:
* Lloyd Kindley's home is just a few yards from the quarry
site. He has- had lung cancer surgery where a lung and voice
box were removed. He now breathes through a hole in his
throat. Lloyd is not looking forward to the truck and
blasting dust nor flying debris. To him it may mean death.
# The Dixie Queen is an operating gold mine which is located
.lust a couple of hundred yards down stream from the pit. The
gold mine shaft actually passes under Anderson Crbek. Quarry
blasting could cause the shaft to flood or cave in. This
would put the mine and possibly humans, out of operation.
Many historical structures are located in the vicinity of
the proposed quarry. Several of these are listed in the
Cabarrus County Historical Guide. We .do not want them ruined
or damagedt
It seems odd that, without improving our old one lane
bridges, someone has gone through the area applying stickers
to the bridge weight restriction signs which increases the
weight limit. The Mining Act of 1971 (74-51 Permits --
Applications, granting, conditions) states, "Priority
consideration shall be given to applicants who submit evidence
that the mining proposed will be for the purpose of supplying
materials to the Board of Transportation. " Does the odor
suggest of collusion?
* At the 9/20 public hearing (where the Department promised to
give full consideration to all comments submitted) the
operator' s representitives were not aware of a drowning in
their Midland quarry, blasting damage to a home and even the
years that they owned the Midland quarry. Is this what it
means to be "dumb like a fox "?
# We realize Martin Marietta is not legally responsible for
truck damage to public or private property. However, the
quarry would draw them like flies are drawn to garbage. Heavy
trucks will mean death to our sand based roads. They do not
stand up to car traffic. Because of the holes and ruts, it is
impossible to keep your car in your lane. Some cars even drag
bottom in the ruts. Further compound this with the fact that
the roads are so narrow that truck cannot meet truck -- or
school bus. Martin Marietta knows that when trucks and/or
buses meet on these roads that someone must drive off the road
or collide. But- even though Martin Marietta caused this they
are not responsible for it. Same as they are not responsible
for anyone drowning in their pit.

No one wants an irresponsible neighbor. People in this
community want people for neighbors not a noisy, dangerous
polluting industry that threatens our way of life and destroys
property value. At the hearing, when asked how the community
would benefit from a quarry in the neighborhood, Martin
Marietta responded, "you should be able to get rock for your
driveway cheaper" . Residents of our community are of the
opinion that the world would continue to get along with rock
from existing quarries.
We ask you to consider the negative consequence to our
communities life and the environment while you are deciding
the fate of this application and ours.

Dear Mr. .Holloway:
I have been reading with much interest about the proposed Martin
Marietta Corporation rock quarry to be located in the Flowe Store
area of Cabarrus County.
Our Chamber wants to be assured that mining in this area would be
in the interest of our citizens. it appears from the newspaper
articles and from comments we received from residents in the Flowe
Store area that their concerns were not answered. The impact that
a rock quarry would have on the environment is of major concern to
all of us and we are hopeful that your department would thoroughly
investigate the affects of such a mine before issuing a permit.
I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.
Yours truly,
Philip H. Smith, Sr.
President
PHS/bab
